Another method which the states are
using In the control of capital is
prohibition. In spite of the Four
teenth amendment to the constitution
of the United States, persons and
corporations having millions of dol
lars invested in many of the states,
are being deprived of their property
"without the process of law." The
Closing Of the lace tracks in Missouri
and New York, which has been fol
lowed by a slump in racetrack gam
bling all over the Country, has de
prived th isands of people of prop
erty which they considered just as
sacred as do Iho railroad holders of
coal mines In Pennsylvania and prob
ably with about as much equity. And
when one est I unit es the amount of
property destroyed by Iho growing
sentiment against gambling in every
American state during the ten years
?ow pass]
that tho Fourteenth amendment
should stand Idly by and see till this
irwroug done, while it Is so active In
behalf of tho public service corpora
tions! Bui the greatest destruction!
of property in Iho country without
duo process of law has been done in
tho brewery and saloon business.
The anti-saloon sentiment of the
Ration seems to have gone to work
about ten years ago and worked with
* out much result for hall a decade.
Hut since lSO-l results have been com
ing regularly. Staleuide prohibition
now prevails hi Alabama. Georgia,
Mississippi. North Carolina, North
Dakota. Oklahoma; Kansas adopted
prohibition in 1*m>, but did not en
force it rigidly in the larger cities
until 1906, and Maine has galvanized
?teller old las-. Into new efllclency.
Prohibition new has abolished the sa
loon in a majority of the counties in
Arkansas. Missouri, Texas. Connecti
cut. Delaware. Florldn, Illinois. Iowa
Kentucky, Lousiana, Nebraska, New
Hampshire. Ohio, Oregon, South Car
olina, Tennessee, Virginia and West
Virginia. And in every one of these
states excepting Now Hampshire and
Iowa, where prohibitory laws were
? repealed in ;ikero Is a strong
: movement for statewide prohibition.
indorsed more or less definitely by
! one of the two ruling parties. In
: tho election oi i "1^ the Anti.Saloon
league made gidllH in New Vork, IUI
nois, South Carolina, Washington,
Idaho and Ohio. The movement Is
Strong in southern California and Is
; moving rapidly up the coast. In
. Colorado iho saloon has boon abolish
ed from nlnoiy-thrco towns within
Ii? past two years. In Mi
(IHGttfl in five years there has been a
gain Of 110 town-. Tor the anti-saloon
territory and Worchostor Is said to
he the largosl prohibition town In the
world. In Michigan there are now
eleven prohibition counties and 700
prohibition towns, as against two
OOUtlties and 100 prohibition towns
I five years ago. In Minnesota live
years have seen the prohibition towns
grow from ten to 1.611. In New Jer
sey, where there has been a warm
contest for four yeai>. the temper
alice p' ?pl? have secured Sunday
Closing. And a statewide campaign
for county prohibition Is waging in
^flVnn yl var.ia.
The movement against the saloon
is gaining headway in every Amer
ican state, Ami sentiment now til it*
. ors from sentiment thirty years ago:
there is little emotionalism in this
movement. It is subject to no reac
tions. The people seem to feel that
l^the saloon is a lawbreaker; that It
is a business extravagance, and that
it corrupts politics, and keep the peo
ple from accomplishing their ends.
Hence capital invested in the liquor
business Is not restricted, as capital
Invested in public service, corpora
lions, not divided as all capital is
divided through the tax law of the
state hut destroyed without due pro
cess of law, and Without recourse or
?damages from the state. Ami as the
^rallroad IftWa of the states have been
epitomized in the national laws, ami
is the growing conviction if the
stat>'.-. that property should he fur
ther taxes, has found a national
voice in the declarations of President
Roosevelt and Mr. Taft and Mr. Bryan
for Income taxes and Inheritance
taxes on the federal statutes, so the
revolt against the saloon has found
its echo in the demand for a national
j law restricting the interstate ship
ment of liquor.
